- From 1982, the Temptations reunion live audio!
The Temptations Reunion definitely could've been more than it was, but we should just be thankful it happened at all. I do think that they should've released a live album, or them redoing their old songs with the 7-man lineup.
Having said that, the reunion sorta misses for me sometimes, because I feel the "current" lineup at that time was getting a bit neglected.
I would've loved to hear Eddie and Glenn trade leads at some point, or have David sing some lines on songs he wasn't in the band for. Can you imagine David Ruffin's version of "Cloud Nine"?
Also left out of the reunion are some past members. Damon Harris, who was a lead vocalist on many popular Temptations songs, including Papa, was not invited to the reunion, and neither was Louis Price. I can understand not featuring Louis, as he left the group just a couple years before, but Damon was certainly an influential part of the group. In most of their shows for the reunion, they do pay beautiful tribute to the original soul of the Temptations, Paul Williams, and that will be no different here.
This isn't quite related, but something that always bothered me about the Temptations Reunion official videos is that they don't even spell Glenn's name right half the time. There is an official intro out there to a music video from the reunion, with him introduced as "Glen". I mean, come on.
Anyway, enjoy!

You add the FANTASTIC voices of Richard Street, Glenn Leonard, and Dennis Edwards who weren’t part of the original recording and somehow made this classic MORE of a masterpiece than it already was. RIP David, Eddie, Paul, Blue, Dennis, and Richard. Long Live Otis and Glenn!
Right
Its tragic a live reunion LP was never put 2gether for an official release. Thanks 4 posting. David Ruffin was a showman!
I totally agree. At the very least it would've sold, I think it maybe would've given more longevity to th reunion. Maybe someday we'll get an official release from one of these concerts! Thanks for commenting!
@@readbtwnthelines I find it VERY interesting to read and hear how difficult Mr. Ruffin was during the tour. When u hear these live tracks, he sounds like the old Ruffin from the ‘60s. It’s unfortunate cuz it was his behavior that caused Otis to decide to go back to the 5 man line up when the reunion tour dates were done. Eddie and David weren’t even on Motown 25! On a happier note, these live tracks are great to hear. Anymore coming ??
@@ghanasoul I do find it interesting as well. Every performance that I've heard from the Reunion does feature David Ruffin, but I was of the belief that it was his constant absence that caused the decision to return to the 5-man lineup.
Maybe it's a case of they only recorded the performances Ruffin did show up at, but it doesn't help we don't even know how many shows the Reunion did.
More coming! I hope to find more full concerts, but the rest of this show I am planning on uploading asap.
Yes David Ruffin was a showman and could sing. Thank God for you David
David was a great frontman; all were showmen! Fabulous Singers/Performers. Otis was/is the Backbone. Temptations Forever.

Can you upload more temptations or David Ruffin footage/tapes please
Thanks for commenting! I have a bit more David Ruffin I plan on uploading already, and I'm sure I'll find more.
@@readbtwnthelines thank you so much
@@readbtwnthelines where do you find this stuff
@@HGamer-fq5qh Of course! My idea for this channel is to collect and archive all that I can of the Temptations.
This audio was found after I searched some keywords on google I found about the show. Sometimes google will show you what you are looking for, and I got lucky to find these clips. I'm sure more is out there, we just have to find it.
While you are entitled to your opinion I have to say you are waaaay off the mark on the reunion tour. Living in the moment it was a stupendous feat that the seven of them came together for the tour. Every go to a family reunion and some family members you can't stand (or vice versa) are there? Times like that call for a one day suppression of egos. These guys went on a TOUR and the infighting and personality clashes have been well chronicled. I saw the Reunion show at Westbury NY and it was a moment in history that will never be seen again. So, with all due respect, I think your posting of this live recording is a gem, and I thank you for putting here.
Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you got the chance to see the reunion!
❤
THIS! WOW! PARTS♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
No shame in her game
